My 7 rivet has the plates behind the ears and the casting that goes completely around the hole.

Tbird

Interesting pan and the transition details. The front casting looks like the later narrow nose pans without the front casting going completely around the hole. Might be a really late 12 early 13 and or last of the 7 rivet arms being used up. Interesting

Tim,
Great thanks. I’d love to see a picture/Know how to make one. Thanks Mike

Here is a Phinney Walker rim wind with a angled case. How does something like this mount on the dash? It has a set screw on the bottom. I’m thinking that perhaps there was some sort of bracket that it mounted to in the firewall. Any help much appreciated Thanks Mike 3EC37EB4-9468-449D-93CD-431EACD77...

Larry,
Thanks a bunch for the info. The Rands windshield that I have does have the internal spring hinges and the smaller upper half. Looks like I'll clean them up and get them re-plated. It's great to know that these brackets are original to the windshield/era.
Mike

Tbird

Larry,
Interesting! Thanks for the picture. Now here's another mystery. The Rands windshield that came with these brackets is not your typical equal half windshield. It has a larger bottom half and smaller top half. So we're these brackets only unique to the 09-10 year?
Mike

Tbird

I'm just trying to sort out what is what. These brackets came with the Rands windshield which I was told was on a Model T. From what I've read so far is that Rands supplied the brackets with their windshield. The brackets that are repop are just one of many styles that we're available. These bracket...

So I’m going through some parts and I have these brass dash to windshield brackets. I have two pair. They came with a Rands brass windshield.

According to the Speedo book by Russ the only part numbers on these are 12 A and 12 B. The potmetal ones have the name Stewart on them as well as different 4 digit numbers to help identify the year.

I purchased an original Rands windshield a while back and with it came the windshield support rods. I’ve seen other support rods with a bend near the top. These are completely straight all the way down. Can someone who has a 12 verify? One of the rods is heavier gauge brass tube as you can see in th...

With the Holley carb it looks like it does have the fuel inlet pipe. It does look to be in very good shape, if it has/ hasn’t been rebuilt that would effect cost. Russ Potter is the expert on the carbs. You can contact him here

George,
Some light heat and it should come off. If your spindle have the full round flange they are a little more difficult to get off. The later spindle with the flat edge flanges are easier to get off. If it's all pitted up, don't waste your time on trying to save it.

Tbird
